Congratulations to our Year 7s on their excellent start. Books are safely stored in lockers, subject timetables recorded and their new laptops are being well utilised. Homework has begun and their three-day camp program at Portsea commences next week. Students are very much enjoying their Maths Pathway, Life to the Full and Instrumental Music programs. It was great to welcome their parents to this week’s presentation by the Year 7s on Project Based Learning.
